Geocache Description:

You will need an ATV or a high clearence 4x4 that you wouldn't be mad if you scratch the paint a little. I dedicate this cache to my good friend Drifty. If you ever make it up this way with your wheeler, this is a dandy "Top of the Mountain" cache just like you like them.

I believe that this cache is located at the High Point of the Tintic Mountains. My daughter and I were out for a ride this afternoon and hiked about 230 feet in elevation and 625 feet from where we parked our Yamaha Grizzly (N40º 00.247' / W112º 11.692'). Some nuts have actually driven almost right to it. That last little bit was just to steep for me to try. The last thing I want is 600 lbs. of Grizzly landing on top of me. Check out the pictures that I took. The views are awesome. Make sure you cover this up after you find it.
